About Us
The medical staff at the center is among the nation’s finest group of ophthalmologists with more than 42 years of experience of cumulative medical expertise in the field of pediatric ophthalmology.
Children’s access to ophthalmic care is severely affected as pediatric offices and physicians are not willing to see non-paying patients or Medicaid patients. The James Hall Eye Center is the only pediatric eye clinic in Atlanta where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance or the family’s inability to pay.
Our impact is greater today as we have become the primary provider of ophthalmic care in Atlanta, and we are extending our work to various counties around Atlanta to improve our ability to care for our most prized treasure -our children. We treat eye disorders from the newborn period up to 18 years of age without charge. Most of our patients are referred to us from physicians across the state, pediatric offices, emergency rooms and local community organizations as they know no one else will admit non-paying patients. We serve Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Tennessee.
We serve patients with incomes below poverty level, Medicaid patients and children who do not qualify for state or federal assistance from birth through their teenage years. The Center provides treatment and rehabilitation therapy until the patient reaches optimal vision; some cases require ongoing medical treatment through their teenage years and even adulthood.
Vision
Our goal is to restore and preserve eyesight to be used for a lifetime.
